Yes. I have a Samsung galaxy tab S7+ and I will be taking hand-written digital notes and emailing them to myself with a fresh email account on my personal tablet.
Yes but I only use my phone plus a text message should be more credible than an email. Do you think it is worth the effort when you’ve been wrongfully terminated,racially discriminated,targeted at work and working in a hostile environment to go to court?
Whats terrible is you don’t think to make notes of things when they first start . Especially when you’re just trying to work and go home not cause problems
Always remember the HR Department is never on your side. They are there to protect the Company, not you. Even though they write a policy manual about violating civil labor laws and to report to them immediatally. This is why you take notes with dates.
Is is appropriate or encouraged to take private notes or private recordings separate and away from work or "fellow employees?" That is, once an employee clocks out and leaves the office property, or once an employee arrives at their home.
I ask because I have met people who record video, not necessarily workplace related, while they are in transit or while they are parked in a parking lot.
@@jonburger6158 at my workplace HR is against you. They had video evidence and still tried to lie and deny what was in plain sight. Now the company is hemorrhaging staff left and right and on the verge of collapse.
With repeated incidents of harassment, noting everything that was said, even just the important things in short hand, can quickly cause your notes to become a book that NO ONE wants to read
You are a lawyer who truly cares about people. Your advice is wonderful for people to protect their jobs. Many lawyers out there would only care after they see a viable case.
Wished I had found your channel earlier as I am sure as many here. Never had any interactions with the HR department of any company other than hiring or benefit questions until recently. Had I known the sacrifice I made signing a severance document, I certainly would have done things differently. Excellent breakdown of the processes of an HR department. Very insightful.
So grateful I stumbled on to your You Tube Page! Prior to watching your recommendations, I did everything wrong in all of my documenting harassment and bullying at work. Lesson learned. 😒
Im already retire, i have suffer a great deal as factory worker, used to go home frustrating sad and sometimes crying because i didn't want to lose my job, and waking up at 5'00 am to go where i didn't want to go was torture, my nerves are better now, I had to retire at 62 because i hated the work force😢
One way to look at it is that it gives the company an edge. The person with the bad behavior becomes a puppet. Not exactly getting over, just initially appears that way.
I am in a wheelchair due to ms. I am also 65. I was working at my job full time, but decided i wanted to go part time, and open my own small retail store. When i did this, i started getting treated differently. Five of the women that run the company are all relatives, which makes it extremely hard to tell a supervisor about bad behavior, because the person is related to her! I also was not given any guidance on how to do my job. When i would ask the person who does the same job i do, she pretty much dissmissed me.
Best advice I have received from an employment attorney is to take daily notes, dated an initialed. Whether it says “answered calls” or has an extensive report. It creates a paper trail that your employer most likely does not have, and will have to defend against.
Hats off to you for making these videos. Upvoted. This is helpful for not only people who live in California or people in the U.S. but those who work in G7 countries or for American companies abroad. Sure the laws are different but the basics of how to deal with HR and what to expect, what not to do are essentially the same. I always wondered about these things and don’t have anyone to share it with (especially colleagues lol ) as these things are kind of private. Maybe just with a partner but a partner isn’t alway a great person to converse ideas with and he could be way off. So I’m glad I found a channel that can talk about these things. Thanks.
I worked in a very famous company,experienced every possible means in the words nasty known to every worker,went to HR .And what do I get almost get fired after I was hit by an employee by complaining.I can't do anything so I left the company.But the Manager wants me back .When I saw your video your so refreshing to learn from this video. I don't know what should I do?
This is what I learned. If you initially send an email to your superior and they verbally communicate an answer because they like to switch things down the road and want nothing in writing then is best to send them a follow up about the conversation for your records.
The 5 W's ALWAYS work. I learned this when I was in the military. When you can prove your case, you won't have to stand on the rug. I have numerous matters "pending". That was 25 yrs. ago, I wonder if they forgot about them? 🤣
Good info. Some items I knew, others I didn’t. These videos are helpful because they give a sense of the mindset needed when dealing with a difficult work situation.
how can they trust your documents you wrote ? what about ppl work as labors at walmart places like that ? they dont get text messages or emails all verbal.
My supervisor does a lot of shit that pisses everyone off but unfortunately none of it is in email or IM or other such document so it's really hard to keep track of it
I kept notes in a small notebook, but my supervisor took them out of my tool chest. He said he was allowed to. He got fired a few months later for stealing company property and using his company credit card. Karma.
No, essentially the most common “bad behavior” is excused an not unlawful (microaggression, a manager that yells at everyone that he/ she doesn’t particularly like, manipulating bonus). What I want to know is if it allowed to sign up for personal use hotel and flight travel rewards programs using companies' business travels an itineraries.
Good videos, and you are a smart business man, potential clients will have a much better prepared case with their education and because of this you will take their case!
I disagree partly - but I'm not a lawyer, so I may be wrong. But I say document everything you see as a problem early on, including how it makes you feel, what you've done, etc, before you go to HR. Do this on a Word document, then if things escalate and you need to take further action, you have more detail for yourself; you can edit or even delete the document, and then follow Branigan's advice to the letter.
I have recently been wrongfully terminated for whistleblowing & racially discriminated against. I worked at a water park testing water for chlorine and PH levels and if they are too high or too low I would inform my manager which then should’ve been adjusted to the right level. If it doesn’t then it is my responsibility to not continue testing & inform the GM which then will close the park down. Since my signature is needed at the end of the day. What do you think?
Thank you for this helpful information. My attorney quit my case after they received over $1 million dollars. I have not been able to find a lawyer on contingency fee basis. The discrimination is ongoing as my current salary as a professor is $1700 per month. A few lawyers were told they would get hourly rate. My right to sue letter from DFEH was given on December 11, 2020. The CSU refused to pay my judgment. Please help. Thanks
A little not. I’d not say your consultations are primarily for CA employees who got fired. Instead try employees in CA who got fired. The former implies working for the state while the latter, working in the state.
Most people don't want to work too many hours, bit if they don't write it down in the application they won't get hire, Questions: are you willing to work: overtime, weekends, holidays, Sundays, stay late nights?, If you write "YES " then they got you by the balls.
What about text messages to others? I sent frustrated texts to my friends and partner as things were occurring and they include time/date/people involved, even the lack of response after I complained in some cases. Is there a reason these would be totally inadmissible or is it possible that they can count as notes? Knowing that you can't give specific legal advice, so just generally your thoughts on their usefulness 😊
I'm wondering - is it OK to save .pst / .ost files from Outlook work machine , or am I better off going e-mail by e-mail that are relevant to the case.
I got a lots of text that i did on the same day and emails and i email the ceo and the feo and a eco marketings and hr karen and hr the name escapes me, i keep the statement and i got withness
Depends. But usually the lawyers on both sides can depose anyone who has relevant evidence. If there is a dispute whether or not someone should be allowed to testify, the judge will decide.
Great video, thank you so much! What about sending to the manager and the Union rep participating on the "retaliation" call, a summary of understanding of what was communicated to me and to union rep, right after the call? Also, what about the notes sent right after that retaliation call to several private attorneys to ask them to review and take my case? They are not my attorneys yet, but my same, contemporaneous message to 3-4 attorneys to review my case and see if they accept it. Would that be "here-say"? Would those emails, and the EEO amendment to my complaint to include the same facts regarding retaliation, would that be sufficient evidence acceptable in court? And why the Agency refused to allow the union rep who is the only person witnessing/participating to the calls to be interviewed by the investigator or mentioned the Agency refusal in the Report of Investigation? Is that legal?
People do not want to go to HR to tattle. We want to keep our job, and....we are hoping that the bad behavior....will go away....so... we keep our mouths shut. The inequity of power. Please, be reasonable here.
In states with one-party consent recording laws, can conversations you have with supervisors (which are recorded) be thrown out as evidence if a company has a no recording policy?
Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley other big companies fourth quarter into first quarter cutting jobs... Alot of potential for work... Seeing company made alot of monies... Kpmj believe is another company, during pandemic used that to get rid of employees offering a lower package having those employees buy there marbles
I am at top of my field, althoug in this organizaiton, i am facing harassment, discrimination and bullying for many years now, they even stole 30k from me. They are criminals, can you please help me, they are destroying my career. Also i meant to mention they are hacking into my pc and tap my phone
Attorneys in some states can pay referral fees to other attorneys. For example, in CA, attorneys routinely pay referral fees. They are permitted and encouraged by the state bar. They cannot, however, pay referral fees to non-attorneys. That is against the rules. Other states have different rules. So, if you are in a different state, I recommend you look up your state's rules.
It’s the boss he is HR I’ve documented dates times this is all because for the 3rd time I’m hurt and they will not do a medical so I went to Er and they put it in as workers compt and so I wasn’t put on lite duty they would not allow me to follow dr order. The hatered retaliation unbelievable my rights were taken in the most hateful way. I have back up to prove every date time , what was said, can’t go around any of my coworkers, my ex coworkers threatened and I am the only black girl 16 years never one problem tell now . STL. And there’s more guns pulled on coworker because they were both drunk and I had to run with neuropathy in my legs and a blown out knee. Hostile.
my job destroy my career they lock me in my home ofr 4 years and tryig to force me to marry a young person when i am old i want to be able to leave my home without worrying about safety of family i am forced to work in cyber security they force me to work non stop and dont pay a penny , buy stuff for my network and pay for everything myself they hit both sides of my car when it was parked they wont let me interview anywhere, they act like they own me my freedom in the US has been taken from an employer, is this legal? I am not in india or another country they destroy every area of my life, i need help from authorities and from a lawyer
they are not paying me and keep forcing me to set things up with money when i a down 119 lbs and will never get married in forced marriage why is this legal? they break every law in the book. I wish authoriteis would stop this company, because it is bigger they feel they can break the law
Your Awesome I with so bad that I lived in California but sadly for me I’m in PA. Thank you for these videos. The knowledge I’ve gained is empowering. Namaste 🙏
OMG! I've always wondered exactly how you were supposed to take notes so that they'd mean anything. Everyone is like 'start documenting' but never say how and why. I appreciate this greatly. Thank you
I have two narcissists in my life who try to use documenting me that I display bad behavior . When I educated myself I realized that all they were doing was trying to manipulate and control me so they could get their supply. There are co workers out there that will use this type of action against their target.
Just want to say, I just binged a few of your videos and I'm sure you are a great lawyer, but you must be a teacher as well. Your presentation and videos are really well written, comprehensive and engaging.
I have the notes, documents, and text messages. Pervasive abuse over the last seven years and informed my leader of the abuse. HR also has gone. I quit abruptly today. Contacted an attorney and they wanted to hear nothing of it. I find it hard to find anyone who wants to take an employment case.
Sending notes to a lawyer at the start of problems is a good idea. Your lawyer may help you avoid a complicated situation or help you navigate through it with proper context. If you're at a stage where you're panicking, it will be hard for the lawyer to get up to speed and help you.
Even if notes aren’t admissible, they help to keep events and timelines clear. I’m terrible remembering dates but if you have notes you can be very clear about what happened and when
Totally! I tend to blank out on this kind of thing when I get upset. Documenting dates and times as well as possible, as well as taking screenshots of important text messages clock in times, etc. has been incredibly helpful for me.
The HR polices that organisation create are primarily designed to keep them out of trouble. That does not mean that they always expect their managers to comply with policy. Its just for show.
Thanks for these videos! The law can be intimidating sometimes so this is beyond helpful for those of us who wouldn’t even know where else to find this information
And what about spying? And there places of hiding or using family or using old friends? Or there friends.? Or online? What about that? Just curious it's weird behaviors. And what about interfering with the products I use?
HR covers their tracks so well it's almost impossible to achieve this, it doesn't help if you are ADHD and they keep you so busy you can't remember how it went down when you get the chance to write it all down. I decided to start leaving reviews on the Google pages and hope that nobody else has to go through what I did! HR took the side of the aggressor!
What do you think about a discrimination suit against an employer forcing only unvaccinated employees to wear a mask? Even if they have a religious exemption
If you don't want to get vaccinated then wear a mask much cheaper and easier than suing a company, my company has mandatory vaccination to continue to work there.
@You'll say ahh geez when I make your lawn freeze worry about your own body, it was a legitimate question. You may not believe in religion or respect but fortunately it is constitutionally protected.
JUST FIND SOMEONE THAT FOR A $100 BILL WILL FILL OUT THE FORM AND SQUIRT THE SHIT INTO THE TRASH CAN!!! CLAIM YOU HAVE ASTHMA AND GET A DOCTOR TO AGREE THAT YOU HAVE IT. BUY A BASEBALL BAT AND CATCH THE SOB IN THE DARK, AND HIT A HOME RUN!!!
This is important information to know in case you do go to an Attorney. You need to prove this when going to court. If you you have plenty of proof, you might not even need to go to court. No business wants to ruin their reputation or image.
EXACTLY! now with that in mind NEVER EVER SETTLE OUT OF COURT WITH A NON DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT!!!!!!!!! when you settle with a NON DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT, you are preventing, past, present and future employees from knowing the HORRIBLE AND ILLEGAL things the company is doing to its employees!!!! YOU SUED BECAUSE THEY DID SOMETHING ILLEGAL!! if officer joe blow, violates your rights by beating you up for asking a question, and you settle WITH A NON DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT, it will NOT be public knowledge , so when he does it to someone else there is NO RECORD BECAUSE THE COURT CASE WAS DROPPED, IT WAS NEVER TAKEN TO COURT!! THE SAME THING HAPPENS WHEN SUEING YOUR BOSS!!!
⚠ Have I convinced you to keep notes on the bad behavior you see at work? ⚠
Yes. I have a Samsung galaxy tab S7+ and I will be taking hand-written digital notes and emailing them to myself with a fresh email account on my personal tablet.
What if your boss makes a racist comment about another person. How to add that to your complaint.
yes
Yes but I only use my phone plus a text message should be more credible than an email. Do you think it is worth the effort when you’ve been wrongfully terminated,racially discriminated,targeted at work and working in a hostile environment to go to court?
@@TRUSTME183 It might be. It all depends. I recommend you collect your evidence and call an employment lawyer in your state. I'm in CA.
Whats terrible is you don’t think to make notes of things when they first start . Especially when you’re just trying to work and go home not cause problems
Exactly!
I learned a long time ago about writing yourself emails with dates, times, events. Thanks Russell, Rest in Peace man.
Oh I do, especially when it becomes a pattern.
If it’s not documented then it didn’t happen and ppl lie so easily it makes your head spin!
i want them to stop today. can you help me get a job that pays money? This is illegal too

its not that hr is against you, you just have to provide 100% proof of abuse otherwise it cannot be taken seriously
That's why they always have hotlines so you can call and there's no documentation

Bad behavior at work is rewarded, and they are often promoted!!!
Absolutely
One way to look at it is that it gives the company an edge. The person with the bad behavior becomes a puppet. Not exactly getting over, just initially appears that way.
I like the advice to open a free email to use for emailing your notes. I knew to save somewhere besides a company computer but hadn’t thought of this.

Your videos are more thorough than most attorneys videos. I’m representing myself in a PI case and I can already see lots of parallels
Best advice I have received from an employment attorney is to take daily notes, dated an initialed. Whether it says “answered calls” or has an extensive report. It creates a paper trail that your employer most likely does not have, and will have to defend against.

You shouldn't ever trust anyone really. Deep down, everyone has their own interests at heart. Even if they're doing it for the glory.
OMG! I've always wondered exactly how you were supposed to take notes so that they'd mean anything. Everyone is like 'start documenting' but never say how and why. I appreciate this greatly. Thank you
Exactly!!❤
I have two narcissists in my life who try to use documenting me that I display bad behavior . When I educated myself I realized that all they were doing was trying to manipulate and control me so they could get their supply. There are co workers out there that will use this type of action against their target.
What is horrible is that someone can be a horrible person, break no laws and you have to suck it up.
I know. It sucks. The legal system is far from perfect, that is for sure.
Having a "work diary" is absolutely imperative.
HR IS NOT YOUR FRIEND‼️
I truly appreciate your videos. Your videos have absolutely helped my son with a terrible inhumane situation he had to endure while working at Amazon.
I'm sorry to hear this. If he is in CA, feel free to reach out. 949-667-3025. If he is in a different state, call a lawyer where he lives.
I've heard several bad things about working for Amazon!😮😢
@@Rich7714could you share...plz🦋
Just want to say, I just binged a few of your videos and I'm sure you are a great lawyer, but you must be a teacher as well. Your presentation and videos are really well written, comprehensive and engaging.
Living it!
Living it
Luv it
He’s exceptionally exceptional!
I have the notes, documents, and text messages. Pervasive abuse over the last seven years and informed my leader of the abuse. HR also has gone. I quit abruptly today. Contacted an attorney and they wanted to hear nothing of it. I find it hard to find anyone who wants to take an employment case.
This is why I strive to be self employed!!!
Exactly!!
I hear that!
Sending notes to a lawyer at the start of problems is a good idea. Your lawyer may help you avoid a complicated situation or help you navigate through it with proper context. If you're at a stage where you're panicking, it will be hard for the lawyer to get up to speed and help you.
Even if notes aren’t admissible, they help to keep events and timelines clear. I’m terrible remembering dates but if you have notes you can be very clear about what happened and when
Totally! I tend to blank out on this kind of thing when I get upset. Documenting dates and times as well as possible, as well as taking screenshots of important text messages clock in times, etc. has been incredibly helpful for me.
The HR polices that organisation create are primarily designed to keep them out of trouble. That does not mean that they always expect their managers to comply with policy. Its just for show.
Thanks for these videos! The law can be intimidating sometimes so this is beyond helpful for those of us who wouldn’t even know where else to find this information
creating a separate email..i learned today.. thank you lawyer.
yeah they will not stop stalking me on the internet
And what about spying? And there places of hiding or using family or using old friends? Or there friends.? Or online? What about that? Just curious it's weird behaviors. And what about interfering with the products I use?
HR covers their tracks so well it's almost impossible to achieve this, it doesn't help if you are ADHD and they keep you so busy you can't remember how it went down when you get the chance to write it all down. I decided to start leaving reviews on the Google pages and hope that nobody else has to go through what I did!
HR took the side of the aggressor!
Some HR teams are worse than others but I’ve had some pretty bad experiences with HR also. Definitely not your friend!
At least I know it now, they won't get me at a disadvantage again!
What do you think about a discrimination suit against an employer forcing only unvaccinated employees to wear a mask? Even if they have a religious exemption
If you don't want to get vaccinated then wear a mask much cheaper and easier than suing a company, my company has mandatory vaccination to continue to work there.
Don’t get vaccinated!
@See me in hood the gangstas say wassup Wassup duck you
@You'll say ahh geez when I make your lawn freeze worry about your own body, it was a legitimate question. You may not believe in religion or respect but fortunately it is constitutionally protected.
JUST FIND SOMEONE THAT FOR A $100 BILL WILL FILL OUT THE FORM AND SQUIRT THE SHIT INTO THE TRASH CAN!!!
CLAIM YOU HAVE ASTHMA AND GET A DOCTOR TO AGREE THAT YOU HAVE IT.
BUY A BASEBALL BAT AND CATCH THE SOB IN THE DARK, AND HIT A HOME RUN!!!
Thank you so much for meticulously making these videos. It will help so much if I ever need legal representation.
This is important information to know in case you do go to an Attorney. You need to prove this when going to court. If you you have plenty of proof, you might not even need to go to court. No business wants to ruin their reputation or image.
EXACTLY! now with that in mind NEVER EVER SETTLE OUT OF COURT WITH A NON DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT!!!!!!!!! when you settle with a NON DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT, you are preventing, past, present and future employees from knowing the HORRIBLE AND ILLEGAL things the company is doing to its employees!!!! YOU SUED BECAUSE THEY DID SOMETHING ILLEGAL!!
if officer joe blow, violates your rights by beating you up for asking a question, and you settle WITH A NON DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT, it will NOT be public knowledge , so when he does it to someone else there is NO RECORD BECAUSE THE COURT CASE WAS DROPPED, IT WAS NEVER TAKEN TO COURT!! THE SAME THING HAPPENS WHEN SUEING YOUR BOSS!!!
As always THANK YOU! Branigan for making this videos, your recommendations have helped me SO MUCH !
